How can people who are, by definition, chronically afflicted by a disease that is beyond their own personal control be empowered to master this disease through participation in a therapeutic community?

Dear Social Problems Students,This week during lecture we began looking at one particular public issue: Addiction. We watched an episode from the A&E series Intervention, “Nichole’s Story”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fxEJQy3vQcBased on the ideas presented in the course readings, the points made during lecture, as well as material from “Nichole’s Story,” here are two questions for you to write about:1.  How can people who are, by definition, chronically afflicted by a disease that is beyond their own personal control be empowered to master this disease through participation in a therapeutic community?2. In what ways does this documentary paint addiction as a chemical problem? In what ways does it paint addiction as a social problem too?Please draft a written response to either #1 or #2. Your choice.Your written responses must be between 500-600 words. The paper must have cites from two readings!!!!
